The difference is that for decades windows by default was designed to be an OS anyone could just install on their computer, briefly learn how it works and then just comfortably use their PC without the need to dig around its digital guts every day
Linux is a hollow and basic system following a retarded ideology that everyone should just assemble it from random parts and the "it just werks" meme only popped up because people started posting their "LINUX OS GAMER EDITION" slop online with a bunch of the bullshit pre-configured to save some time.

There are plenty of linux for retards distros that have a windows style installer wizard that does everything for you.
The problem isn't installation. Installing linux and playing popular games through WINE is easy.

You can only change the color on Windows since 8. Anything beyond that requires hacks. Windows 7 and anything before that had proper theme support. KDE theme support is close to old Windows but with even more QoL stuff like an online library where you can just pick what you want and install with a click.

Just a little retarded, maybe. However I'm unfortunately not using linux right now. I'd certainly like to, in the sense that I'd certainly like to get away from windows. But presently steamos has no nvidia support, and the distros that do support nvidia aren't particularly appealing to me. Beyond that, apparently rdp is windows 11 pro exclusive, which is just terrible.
Bottom line here is, anybody who defends modern day microslop, is spiritually not just a jeet, but the dirtiest dalit.

>valve gets its shit together with nvidia support?
I remembered they said they didn't want to release SteamOS for Desktops because of the lack of Nvidia support (I think I inferred it as the drivers were bad and weren't FOSS enough for them to fix things on Linux). I know nvidia has an MIT licensed driver for their cards, but conflicting information on that seems to be they're begrudgingly FOSSing it or it's not truly FOSS in the same way AMD's drivers are. Idk to me it's not like a Valve engineer could bring the FOSS drivers to Maxwell and Pascal like what they did with those "Radeon GCN GPUs" before, because it's not really an actual driver for the GPU?

Valve is investing in NVK instead (via funding development at collabora) because Jewvidia is a backstabber who doesn't care about open source. The only reason nvidia-open is a thing is because they were hacked and the whole kernel driver's source code was leaked, so hiding it no longer made financial sense.
And no, Valve has zero room to negotiate with NVIDIA because NVIDIA doesn't negotiate.

You use WINE.
I think there's a translation layer that converts GL and Vulkan to Metal? From what I understand though it has some overhead and it can't actually implement everything because Metal is shit.
Native macOS games do exist in a limited capacity but since Apple likes to break ABI on every new major version for no reason they have the tendency to just stop working eventually and never get fixed.
Anyways, macOS doesn't have proton or the steam play compat when you install Steam on macOS. There *is* a third-party solution that runs games in a WINE prefix and proxies steam_api to the native client but it requires even more manually assembly to get working than average Linux problems.
If you have a mac that supports Asahi you'll probably have a much better experience using that with FEX or box86/64.

NVidia has no interest in providing additional support.
Their entire real business model (not counting the fake AI slop business model which is purely a stock market scam) depends on a separation of their enterprise and consumer cards, even though they are often the same product. Enabling greater Linux support means that people start breaking down this separation, which ends up cannibalizing both markets.
If a consumer card can offer features like vGPU, then enterprise may choose to use that if the pricing and support for enterprise GPUs isn't favorable, and vice versa the consumers may start using refurbished enterprise GPUs if they just werk.
